Tratamento cirúrgico na fase inicial da insuficiência do Tendão tibial posterior
Keywords:
Dysfunction of the posterior tibial tendon, Tendon tranferencyAbstract
Dysfunction of the posterior tibial tendon is an important cause of acquired flatfoot in adults. The authors describe a technique with a tenodesis side by side of the tibialis posterior to the flexor digitorum longus, that can be used at the initial stages of this condition where there is no deformity.
